Bumping this old thread since I finally got the 3.73s installed. Lidio said to run it conservatively for about 100 miles to break it in. What should I expect from the 3.73s? Better/faster launch? Better from a roll? I know I mentioned running that BMW M4 competition and getting walked...

Beautiful car! GLWS!

Thanks!

So, the car is almost done at Lidio's with the rear end. Turns out I had 3.31s and will have 3.73s. How much if any does that help me in that race against the BMW?

Lidio recommended the Kooks 1 3/4. Pretty sure he can do them but he's several weeks out on them.

Thinking of putting on some Kooks 1 3/4 headers X pipe and cat back. Any recommendations on a good exhaust shop in the northwest Oakland/NW Macomb county area?

That's an incredibly great price for a phenomenal piece of machinery! GLWS!

Well, dropped off the car at Lidio's and getting the 3.73s and the J&L oil separator. Pretty excited!

Yea, that's the truth and partly what's fueling the HP wars which benefits us all. Only a few years ago it seems, 662HP was an insane number. Now the Shelby's approach 800, the Mopars have some 800HP cars and GM is loading up a new ZR1 supercar that's rumored to be in the 800HP range. How soon...

Thanks for all the info everyone. Learned something new about those cars.

Yes, I have a 2.4 pulley and a tune. Mods in my sig. Need more I guess. Cha Ching!

Was just driving home down a pretty open two lane road and a BMW comes up to me with the usual loud BMW exhaust sound. I typically stay away from street racing but it was later, the road was ride open, the temps were cool, so I figured what the heck. I've raced a few BMW M classes before...

I ended up getting a J&L one to support Lethal Performance. This is the one I got: J&L 3012P-C 2007-2014 Shelby GT500 3.0 Passenger Side Oil Separator (Clear Anodized)

Thanks Vinnie! Looking at this one from UPR. 10-14 Shelby GT500 5.4 5.8 TVS Passenger Billet Oil Catch Can Do I need the one way breather, replacement o-rings, magnetic drain plug, and drain line kit? Edit: Didn't even see the link you provided. So just order that one and I'm all set? Going...

How important/necessary are catch cans?
